You have to try 1mg oral daily or every other day. If you are afraid of sides I would proceed like this.
- atleast 1x daily minoxidil 5%
- atleast every three days 1-1.25mg finasteride
- add ru 5% and ketoconazole to your topical finasteride and use it every other day
As you see in the chart finasteride needs 5-6 days so the result will be pretty much the same. But imo it does not f*** around with you because it feels like an extra in combination with the other treatments.
